He is a better QB than Rodgers is. The only problem is that Rodgers is the team's future and has sat on the bench for too long.
I think Green Bay would have been a better team
this year if Favre had started for them. I think they are better in the long run without him.
I think he will play well in New York. I considered Favre the best QB in the league last year. He didn't have a Moss/Welker, Wayne/Harrison, or Owens on his team. He had Jennings who is a good reciever but he is NOT a Randy Moss caliber player. Assuming Favre is still in shape, the Jets look like the #2 team in the division and should compete for a wild card spot this year.
Every sport has a Brett Favre. (Roger Clemens who is finally more than likely gone, Mark Martin, Greg Norman, hell I even work with some one who does this.) These people all say that they are done or close to done and then keep going.
I love the comparison to sex by the way.
